Strictly within the standard electro-weak interaction, CP violation in the flavour conserving process $\eta \ra \pi + \pi $ could originate from the mixing of the $\eta$ meson with the virtual scalar Higgs $ H^{0}$ via $ W^{+}+W^{-}$ and…

We study the CP-violating asymmetry {\cal A}_{\rm CP}, which arises, in \eta\to\pi^+\pi^- e^+e^-, from the angular correlation of the e^+ e^- and \pi^+\pi^- planes due to the interference between the magnetic and electric decay amplitudes.…

We argue that CP violation has rather dramatic impact on the "gravity as the weakest force" conjecture. Namely we find that new ultraviolet scale must be $\Lambda \lesssim \theta g^3 M_P$, where $\theta$ is an effective parameter describing…

We construct the CP-odd weak basis invariants from the neutrino mass matrix in a weak basis in which the charged lepton mass matrix is diagonal and find the necessary and sufficient conditions for CP conservation. We study the…

We propose classification schemes for characterizing two-dimensional topological phases with nontrivial weak indices. Here, "weak" implies that the Chern number in the corresponding phase is trivial, while the system shows edge states along…

Measurements of the rates for the hadronic decays B^+- -> pi K along with the CP-averaged B^+- -> pi^+- pi^0 branching ratio can be used to bound and extract the weak phase gamma=-arg(V_ub). Using preliminary CLEO data, we obtain the bounds…

By using the relation between CP-violation phase and the mixing angles in Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix postulated by us before, the rephasing invariant is recalculated. Furthermore, the problem about maximal CP violation is discussed.…

We examine the phase structure of the $CP^3$ model as a function of $\theta$ in the weak coupling regime. It is shown that the model has a first order phase transition at small $\theta$. We pay special attention to the extrapolation of the…

We explore the possibility of extracting the weak phase $\gamma$ from pure tree decays $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda (D^0, \bar{D^0}, D^0_{CP})$ in a model independent way. The CP violating weak phase $\gamma$ can be determined cleanly, without…

Recent experimental limits for the direct CP asymmetries in $B^0 \to K^+ \pi^-$, $B^+ \to K^+ \pi^0$, $B^+ \to K^0 \pi^+$, and $B^0 \to \pi^+ \pi^-$, and for the indirect CP asymmetry in $B^0 \to \pi^+ \pi^-$, are combined with information…

Context. The high precision of recent asteroseismic observations of red-giant stars has revealed the presence of mixed dipole modes in their oscillation spectra. These modes allow for a look inside the stars. Among the parameters used to…

We derive constraints for $B\to VV$ modes ($V= vector meson) that allow aquantitative assessment of the contributions from electroweak penguins (EWP) and/or new physics. Interplay of direct CP with oscillation studies then leads to the…

I review some of the salient issues connected to CP-violation and weak decays. In particular, I focus on recent and forthcoming tests of the CKM model and discuss the accuracy one can expect to achieve in B-decays for the parameters of this…

We discuss the possibility of relating the size and sign of the observed baryon asymmetry of the universe to CP violation observable at low energies, in a framework where the observed baryon asymmetry is produced by leptogenesis through the…

In this paper we discuss how to define an appropriate notion of weak topology in the Wasserstein space $(\mathcal{P}_2(H),W_2)$ of Borel probability measures with finite quadratic moment on a separable Hilbert space $H$. We will show that…

Usually, B->pi+pi- decays are expressed in terms of weak amplitudes explicitly dependent on the CKM weak phase alpha or gamma. In this letter, we show that the weak amplitudes can be rewritten such that a manifest dependence on beta emerges…

This work provides some general theorems about unconditional and conditional weak convergence of empirical processes in the case of Poisson sampling designs. The theorems presented in this work are stronger than previously published…

The decay $b\to d e^+e^-$ has an amplitude containing comparable contributions proportional to $V_{tb}V_{td}^{*}$, $V_{cb}V_{cd}^{*}$ and $V_{ub}V_{ud}^{*}$. These pieces involve different unitarity phases produced by $c\bar{c}$ and…

We consider $B^{\pm,0} \to \rho^0(\omega)h^{\pm,0}$, where $\rho^0(\omega)$ decays to $\pi^+\pi^-$ and $h$ is any hadronic final state, such as $\pi$ or $K$. We find a large direct CP asymmetry in B-meson decays via $\rho \omega$…

A major problem in the determination of the the CP angle $\alpha$, that should be measured through modes of the type $B_d, \bar{B}_d \to \pi \pi , \cdots ,$ is the uncertainty coming from Penguin diagrams. We consider the different ground…
